I must say I'm as fed up with the republicans as I am with the democrats.
They clearly wish to control the Tea Party, which is NOT going to happen. They tried to tell the Christine O'Donnell to back out of the race. Their reason because she didn't have a chance to win. I believe it was really because they didn't have control over her. They would rather have a liberal republican who's been in office for 20 years take it even though he really doesn't represent our values.
They whine that Christine winning the primary may ruin their chances of control of the senate. It sounds very much like Obama and the Democrats blaming republicans because they can't get things passed when they have control.
The republicans refuse to really get behind O'Donnell though they talk of how much they need that seat yet they're only going to throw the minimum amount of support so they can say they tried.
This shows it's not really just about winning back the house and the senate but about having "THEIR" people in there. Clearly the republicans are more concerned about being able to keep progressives in office and keep the agenda moving forward.
Sadly I think many, most, maybe even all of the republicans represent the people little if any more than the democrats. They are annoyed that the people want O'Donnell.
Consider for a moment what this really means. It is the same as what democrats are saying. The republicans are saying we the people really don't know what we're doing. We need their guidance. They don't feel they should submit to what we want rather we should bow to their superior political knowledge and understanding.
It is insulting how the democrats and republicans treat us like children that need to be led by the hand. If the republicans lose the seat in Delaware they have no one to blame but their lack of support. Whatever support they were going to give Mikey.. they should give O'Donnell if they're serious about winning. I don't believe they are. They are serious about wanting control and O'Donnell doesn't promise that to them.
We even have the republicans doing everything they can to bring up anything in her past that could possibly hurt her. Do they do this with their own? Never. If anything they do all they can to provide cover. Once again this indicates they are trying to destroy her and send a message to the Tea Party... Don't Cross Us or you won't get anywhere.
It is time that the republicans heard the same message we've been sending to the democrats.
DON'T TREAD ON US!
They are showing how much they oppose the will of we the people. What they are doing is an insult and an affront to the Tea Party and the People as well as the majority of their own party in Delaware who voted for Christine.
If this is what they intend to do we need to replace the leadership in the republican party as much as we need to replace the democrats. It would seem they are all bad apples and show it by their fruit. Rotten to the core!
